25、Mariam was five years old the first time she heard the word harami. It happened on a Thursday. It must have, because Mariam remembered that she had been restless that day, the way she was only on Thursdays, the day when Jalil visited her.
To pass the time until the moment that she would see him at last, Mariam had climbed a chair and taken down her mother’s Chinese tea set. It was the only thing that Mariam’s mother, Nana, had of her own mother, who had died when Nana was two. It was this last piece that slipped from Mariam’s fingers, that fell to the ground and broke.
When Nana saw the bowl, her face turned red, grabbed Mariam by the wrists, pulled her close, and, through gritted teeth, said, “You are a silly little harami!”
At the time, Mariam didn’t know what this word meant. It was the way Nana said the word—not so much saying it as shouting it at her—that made Mariam feel the full pain of it. She understood then that a harami was an unwanted thing.
Jalil never called Mariam this name.
Jalil had three wives and nine children, all of whom were strangers to Mariam. He was one of Herat’s wealthiest and best-connected men. He had a cook, a driver, and three housekeepers. Nana had been one of the housekeepers.
When Nana said something bad about Jalil, Mariam never had courage to tell her how much she disliked it. But the truth was that around Jalil, Mariam didn’t feel at all like a harami. When Jalil came to see her, all smiles and gifts, Mariam felt all the beauty and generosity that life had to give. For this, Mariam loved Jalil.
EVEN IF SHE had to share him.
【1】What can we know about Mariam according to the passage?
A.She liked her mother’s Chinese tea set very much.
B.She had no courage to tell Jalil she actually liked him.
C.She said something really bad to her mother in her face.
D.She was hurt by the way her mother called her harami.
【2】How did Nana feel when calling Mariam harami?
A.Scared and sad.
B.Nervous and hurt.
C.Worried and heartbroken.
D.Angry and dissatisfied.
【3】What can we infer from the last three paragraphs?
A.Jalil actually loved Nana more than Mariam.
B.Mariam felt loved and satisfied with Jalil around.
C.Mariam often played outside with her brothers and sisters.
D.Jalil was the wealthiest and best-connected man in Herat.

27、 It was a winter morning, just a few weeks before Christmas. While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. When he arrived, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After working for 10 hours, he returned to find his bike gone.
The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries (杂货), saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.
I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.
People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a effect in our lives because it made us believe strongly that there’s love between people. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.

A.The man’s job was bike racing. B.It was their only possession.
C.They used it for work and daily life. D.It was a nice Kona 18 speed.

C.the stranger brought over the bike D.life was hard for the young family
【3】How did people get to know the couple’s problem?
A.From radio broadcasts. B.From a newspaper. C.From TV news. D.From a stranger.
【4】What do the write and her husband learn from their experience?
A.An act of kindness can mean a lot. B.One should take care of their bike.
C.News reports make people famous. D.Strangers are usually of little help.
